    Kevin Lueshing nearly pulled off a shocker against a prime Tito Trinidad.

    Tito used to put on his arse pretty every fight around that time. The problem was keeping him there!!

    But boy did he give it a good try, Tito did get put down, but most were flash knockdowns from leaning in, this was a lethal left hook, and tito was on ***** street, he was slamming it into Tito even as he was stopped lol.

    Mine is Eubank vs Thompson I & II. Made me a huge fan of Chris overnight, hated him till that point lol.

    I was just about to say Calzaghe vs Hopkins :twisted:

    In all seriousness.....

    Bruno vs Lewis
    Buchanan vs Duran
    Watt vs Arguello
    Woods vs Jones

    1st 3 are top choices. The only good performance Woods gave was a thorough workout to his chin. Fair play to him for staying up. Then again it's been a while since I watched it.

    Barry was hardly overmatched though was he? He was the champion.
